Sparkly Rainbow Indecision Nails!

Ever have those days where you just can't make up your mind? Of course you have. That's me with these nails. This is the first time I've tried a glitter placement on pointy nails and it's surprising how much the shape can affect a gradient. I was going to go with the gold-green-blue gradient but then the black and white was cool and then I'm like ooo purple and stuff whatever. At least the glitter is good. Let's take a look at Rainbow Indecision Nails, shall we?

Do you have any interest in a tutorial on how to apply and shape these kinds of acrylic tips? It was a bit of a experiment initially to fix a broken nail but I actually super dig the length and shape. It's not hard to do and there are drug store kits that work really well. Let me know in the comments. Once the nails were applied it's just the basic application for glitter I've been over a million times. I really like the mix of holo and matte glitter so there's that. Yeah. Sparkly shiny matte.

The Verdict: I very nearly abandoned this mani cos I couldn't decide but I'm happy I didn't. Sometimes the chaotic mix works out. Sparklies! Woo!

Review: Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles is Accurately Named

It's amazing what you can find when you wander around at night. My favourite time to go shopping is ridiculously late and I'm extra happy when it pays off. I've been looking for Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles for a while now at that couldn't be more up my alley if it tried. I finally managed to find it in a Shoppers last night and it really does live up to its name. A Million Sparkles is a predominately blue glitter that has an amazing ability to look like a foil after a couple of coats. Combine that with gold, silver and pink bar glitter and you have a winner. It's seriously so sparkly I got distracted from what I was saying at lunch today. Application is decent but you really need four coats to get completely opaque coverage. That's ok, glitter dries fast. It's a little rough too but nothing Seche Vite can't fix. The Verdict: Yay glitter! If, like me, you like sparklies to the point where it's the biggest tag on y

Review: JENsations Stars in Space and S'mores

Guess what everyone? I'm going to review some indie polishes that you can actually buy without having to wait for email messages! Yay! And sparkly too! Imagine all the holo glory as while my lightbox produces lovely even white light, it saps any and all rainbows from manis, leaving me to try to take pictures in my kitchen like a barbarian. It may not sound that hard but when you use a manual focus 60mm macro lens that has a wafer-thin depth of field, it's not the easiest. Anyway, let's take a look at two, that's right, two, beautiful polishes from JENsations , Stars in Space and S'mores. First up, Stars in Space. I started with two coats of Zoya Caprice, a very bright purple creme that you'll be seeing a lot of as it makes for a great base. Next, two coats of Stars in Space, the most fabulous mix of silver holo glitter. There's stars, squares (man, I love square glitter), hexes and micro glitter. I liked this one as there was enough glitter on

I'm a Proper Mermaid This Time Beeeeaches

Ermerger guys, I don't have any glitter on me! Well, I do, just on my nails. I always have glitter on me. And cat fluff. It's funny how often my bf comes home with glitter in his beard. That means it's been there all day... Anyway, new nail vinyls mean something a bit different. I swear I'm not actually obsessed with mermaids, it just seems like it... Anyway, again, shall we?
